Description

Offering excellent value for a performance winter garment the Women's Luna Softshell Jacket may look simple but it still packs in plenty of performance to stave off the cold of winter. The fleecy brushed inner face traps body heat to form a barrier against the cold, with wind resistance preventing air penetration that might rob that heat from you. The ThermoDrytex Plus back panel draws perspiration away from the body, allowing it to escape; a vital feature to ensure you're not getting chilled by moisture evaporation from the skin.

Three rear pockets give you plenty of space to store spares, nutrition and a lightweight shell jacket or gilet. Once loaded up the elastic hem insert, with grippy silicone print, keeps the jersey secure and in place maintaining the sleek fit.

Sportful has carried over the no-frills aesthetics of the recently reviewed Luna bib tights to the Softshell Luna Jacket. In addition to the plain design there is a distinct lack of the shaping you might expect with a female-specific jacket. If these (lack of) features appeal then you are in luck, because the Luna's biggest pluses are comfort and warmth; it's a top scorer here.
The design is simple and understated, with the Sportful logo embossed across the rear but barely visible. The jacket lacks reflective detailing so if you opt for either the black one on test or the grey design, you aren't going to be helping yourself in the visibility stakes, though Sportful does have two other offerings, bright pink and a rather unusual green. Otherwise, it's a quality jacket.
The jacket I tested was a medium, and I was surprised that it was so generous. I am used to Italian brands being on the small side, and here in fact, there was a little too much around the midriff (though not as excessive as last winter's Sportful Allure). I would say that it is a rather boyish cut, and certainly a good option if you frequently find some female-specific kit excessively narrowed at the waist. (It's not me in the pics, by the way, it's Tass – who says she, like the Luna, also has a little too much around the midriff…)
There is plenty of length in both the arms and body, so ample coverage and protection against the cold air here. The narrow, minimal cuffs have no elastic in them, though the sleeves narrow enough to prevent draughts entering. I appreciated this, as it meant pulling the jacket on and off was not a battle, as can often be the case.
The jacket's fleece-brushed inner traps body heat inside the jersey. While the frontal panels on the sleeves and torso prevent biting wind and cold air entering, slightly thinner panelling on the rear is designed to draw moisture away, so preventing a build-up leading to chills. With a minimal baselayer the jacket really was exceptional. It makes getting ready for a ride in temperatures close to zero very simple: one baselayer, one jacket and no gilet. I was thoroughly impressed with its ability to keep me warm on 3.5hr+ rides in recent temperatures of 2-4 degrees. If my torso and arms are warm, I have less of an issue with my hands too, so I felt I was really benefiting from the jacket.
Considering it's not classed as waterproof (Sportful scores it 1 out of 4 on that), it stood up pretty well to light rain, surface spray and mist, with water beading on the fabric. It took persistent rain to eventually penetrate it, and even when it did there was sufficient frontal windproofing to ensure that you didn't immediately start to chill.
Value-wise, you could compare prices on these jackets for a long time – there are so many out there claiming to be windproof/thermal. Santini's Coral 2.0 Winter Jacket offers a very similar performance to the Luna and it comes in at £134. Even dhb's Aeron Women's Full Protection Softshell is a tenner more than the Luna. (We'll have full reviews of both the Santini and dhb shortly.) Considering its performance, the Luna is well priced, and if you are happy with the appearance and a rather boyish fit, this is a great buy.
Verdict
Understated design offering outstanding warmth with a boyish cut
